Mini Terri Mannarini and Angela Fedi, researchers from the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, recently posted a message on the NCDD discussion list about a cross-cultural study on citizen involvement they are working on with Ken Maton, associate professor at UMBC. From their message…

We are looking for people who have been involved — as simple citizens — in one or more initiatives of citizen involvement ran by the District government, and who are willing to participate in the study by completing a questionnaire or, alternatively, being interviewed on the phone (about 15-20 minutes each). The study is designed according to the requirements of the International Review Board of the University of Maryland in terms of confidentiality, voluntary participation, and informed consent; less than minimal risks are associated with the procedures

Anyone interested in participating in the study can contact Mini Terri Mannarini (minimann@umbc.edu) or Angela Fedi (angelafe@umbc.edu).
